Kathi,A question I have is this about removing BUILTIN\Administrators from Security->Logins on SQL Server [2005] instance.
If I remove this account from Logins, but the domain users remain as Local\Administrator on the box where SS instance is, are the users able to login the instance and remain a sysadmin? I would assume unless you add their domain users account directly to Logins, then NO, but just wanted to check.
Thanks,

No, you'll first have to add them to your sqlinstances sysadmin role.
Your assumption is correct.
